EMOTIONAL – Paul Kelly
F C Dm C
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/p/paul_kelly/emotional_crd.html ]
The days are getting colder
They stretch before me all in a line
Each night gets a little bit longer
And these stars that once were strange now I call mine
Am G C Dm G
Oh, it's been so long since I saw her face
And I just can't find my way out of this place
F
I took the law into my hands
C
You'd do the same from where I stand
F C Dm
But the punishment here is much worse than the crime
C F C
I guess I get a little emotional sometimes
Each night I light a candle
And I get down on my knees and I pray
My home in ashes I can handle
But not to see my loved ones losing their way
If my tongue sounds lame please don't turn away
Don't you see I'm losing it a little bit every day
If you let yourself understand
I'll give you my heart and hands
Or else the punishment will be much worse than the crime
I know I get a little emotional sometimes
Do you blame me if I get a little emotional sometimes?
Don't act so surprised if I get a little emotional sometimes
